Thought I would take a walk down memory lane. These were the books I used and learned from growing up, plus a course from community school during the off season when I was 14 and 15. Anyone else have any of these?

The Fly Tier's manual is a nice book. The Expert Fly Tier was a good how to book

The only book i remember seeing at home when i started tying (20 years ago) was John Veniard "500 Salmon Flies"
I never tied a fly from a book until I was 32 (last year - a classic salmon fly book)
all my flies when i was young were tied from patterns i either had or saw in a magazine.
